    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Diving the DECO International hyperbaric chamber offers a unique experience, certainly. It’s an artificial reef now, with the chamber itself providing shelter for a surprising array of smaller critters. We've seen White Dolphins, Bottlenose Dolphins, and a few different sea cucumbers here. It’s a site best suited for photographers looking for something a bit different, or divers interested in the historical aspect of the chamber.
